We had no toilet or bath in the cabin. It was extremely small and not worth the money we paid for it.

The beds were very comfortable! The room was close to the swimming pool. The inn was close to food and recreation places. I didn't intentionally request a smoking room. I was actually surprised that the room we were in was a smoking room because it DID NOT stink of smoke. The only thing that gave it away was the ashtrays in the room.

We had an absolutely wonderful time at Great Smokies Inn! It was extremely clean. The staff was constantly cleaning and making sure that their guests had everything they needed and everyone seemed to enjoy working at this establishment. The water pressure was excellent and plenty of hot water. The beds were very comfortable. There are so many good restaurants and shops within walking distance. I can't say enough good things about this place.

Great place to stay...

From check-in to checkout the place and view was amazing. Super close to plenty of mom & pop eateries and small shops. The room were very clean, plenty of towels and the bed was soft as all get out. I would recommend this to anyone and I'll be returning myself.

Everything was perfect, from the friendly staff to the old school spacious and spotless room. One of the cleanest hotels that I have ever stayed at! They even gave our kids a precious Cherokee bag full of goodies. We will definitely be back!

The staff were very helpful and friendly. Check in and check out was flawless. The king smoking room had no residual smoke smells. The room was clean and bed was comfortable. Everything was working in the room, lamps, tv, remote, refrigerator, microwave, air controls, etc. The shower had very strong water pressure, but the faucet outside of the bathroom had low water pressure but was working. Overall, I enjoyed my two night stay at this inn and would return there again in the future.
